Nemo, thanks for asking,
Wikistats broadly comes in two parts
- A Content and activity reports per wiki (html tables and charts based on the
xml dumps)
- B Traffic reports
Traffic reports are built from two sources
-- B1 Domas' hourly aggregations per wiki, aggregated further into monthly
totals per wiki (mobile/non-mobile, normalized/non-normalized), grouped by
project
e.g. http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesPageViewsMonthlyCombined.htm
-- B2 Sampled log lines (these days generated via hadoop)
These sampled log lines are used for two types of reports (with some
hybrids)
--- B2a Breakdowns of traffic by geographic criteria (country, continent,
N/S)
http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportsCountriesLanguagesVisitsEdits.htm
--- B2b Breakdowns of traffic by non geographic criteria (os, browser,
mime type, target wiki, referer, etc)
http://stats.wikimedia.org/cgi-bin/search_portal.pl?search=breakdown+of+traffic
My current proposal is on disabling B2b and hybrid reports like

Only the breakdowns by client? All the breakdowns? All the pageview stats?
The country data is very important, for instance: people often ask such numbers
(at least in Italy); nobody is ever looking at all of them in detail, so it's
important for i18n etc. that they are available for everyone to look at their
corner.
